Macau to open borders to Portuguese nationals from 27 May

Macau’s Novel Coronavirus Response and Coordination Centre has announced that it will allow Portuguese nationals arriving from either Portugal, mainland China or Hong Kong, and who have not travelled outside of those regions within the previous 21 days, to enter Macau as of 27 May 2022.

As hinted at by Secretary for Social Affairs and Culture, Elsie Ao Ieong, last month, the easing of restrictions for Portuguese represents the first step in a pilot program to allow non-residents from selected foreign nations to enter. They will, however, still be required to undergo mandatory hotel quarantine for either 14 days or 21 days, depending on their residency and vaccination status.

Under Chief Executive Order 64/2022, which aims to prevent the spread of COVID-19, non-residents are prohibited from entering Macau, however, taking into account the needs of the residents or entities of the SAR, health authorities may exceptionally waive compliance with this measure based on risk assessment.
